KANSAS  CITY  HIGH  SCHOOL. 


CENTRAL.  HIGH  SCHOOL. 

It  should  be  borne  in  mind  that  the  High  School  is  de- 
signed to  supplement  the  work  of  the  Grammar  Schools,  and 
that  it  is  in  no  sense  a separate  department. 

In  revising  the  courses  of  Study,  special  effort  has  been 
made  to  arrange  thfem,  by  providing  all  the  essentials  of  a 
practical  education,  so  as  to  meet  the  wants  of  that  large  class 
of  pupils  who  do  not  intend  to  pursue  their  studies  beyond 
the  High  School,  and  who,  therefore,  look  to  it  for  the  com- 
pletion of  their  education. 

At  the  same  time  courses  have  been  devised  for  the  pur- 
pose of  giving  the  necessary  preparation  to  those  who  intend 
to  enter  our  best  colleges  and  universities. 

It  is  believed  that  any  course  of  study  deliberately  made 
and  adhered  to,  will  be  more  profitable  to  the  pupil  than 
studies  chosen  by  him  from  year  to  year,  without  plan  under 
the  influence  of  temporary  preference;  therefore,  pupils  must, 
upon  entering  the  school,  choose  some  course  of  study  and 
adhere  to  it  throughout.  However,  if  it  should  appear  nec- 
essary to  parents  to  make  certain  changes  in  the  courses,  in 
order  to  accomplish  certain  purposes,  they  will  find  the  school 
authorities  liberal  in  making  such  changes. 

Pupils  preparing  for  admission  to  any  particular  college 
or  university,  should  consult  with  the  Principal  at  as  early  a 
date  as  possible,  that  the  course  may  be  selected  with  special 
reference  to  the  institution  in  view. 

TO  PARENTS. 

School  closes  daily  at  2:15  o’clock  p.  m.  Parents  are  re- 
quested to  hold  their  children  to  a strict  account  for  the  dis- 
position of  their  time  after  that  time  of  day. 

It  is  hoped  that  parents  will  realize  the  fact  that,  as  a rule, 
to  pursue  successfully  a course  of  study  in  the  High  School, 
will  require  all  the  time  of  the  pupil;  and  that  it  is,  therefore, 
undesirable  that  any  encroachment  upon  his  time  should  be 
made  by  the  pursuit  of  any  business  occupation  or  an  excess 
ive  indulgence  in  social  amusements.  To  secure  the  best  re- 
sults, it  is  necessary  that  the  attendance  shall  be  regular. 
Want  of  success  in  the  studies  is  usually  traced  to  absence 


7 


from  recitation.  The  parents  are  asked  to  aid  the  teachers, 
so  that  there  may  be  no  absences,  tardinesses,  or  dismissals, 
except  in  cases  of  necessity. 

In  order  that  the  work  of  the  High  School  may  be  well 
done,  it  is  necessary  that  at  least  two  of  the  daily  recitations 
should  be  prepared  out  of  school  hours,  and  if  a pupil  does 
not  study  at  home  that  fact  should  be  considered  prima  facie 
evidence  that  he  is  not  faithfully  doing  his  work. 

ADMISSION. 

Pupils  who  complete  the  work  of  the  Ward  Schools  are 
passed  in  course  into  the  high  school.  Other  candidates  for 
admission  must  sustain  ^ good  examination  in  Practical  Ar- 
ithmetic, Geography,  English  Grammar,  United  States  History 
and  Spelling. 


TUITION. 

Section  96.,  Rules  and  Regulations  : 

‘'The  charges  for  tuition  of  non-residents  of  the  district 
shall  be,  in  the  High  School,  ^lo.oo  per  term  of  twelve 
weeks.  On  presentation  of  the  Treasurer’s  receipt  for  the 
requisite  tuition,  the  Superintendent  may  issue  an  order  for 
the  admission  of  said  non-residents,  but  without  such  order 
they  cannot  be  admitted.” 

RECOMMENDATION  TO  UNIVERSITIES. 

Pupils  who  have  maintained  a good  standing  in  the 
Kansas  City  High  School  and  are  graduated  from  some  one 
of  the  courses,  will,  on  application,  receive  at  graduation  a 
certificate  of  standing  recommending  them  for  admission  to 
the  Universities  of  Michigan  and  Missouri,  and  Northwestern 
University,  Vassar  and  Wellesley  Colleges,  without  further 
examination.  These  certificates,  with  some  special  restric- 
tions, will  be  accepted  at  several  other  colleges.  Application 
for  recommendations  to  these  institutions  should  be  made  in 
writing  not  less  than  one  month  before  graduation.

GRADUATION. 

The  scholastic  year  is  divided  into  two  terms.  One 
term’s  study  in  any  subject  in  the  course  successfully  done 
entitles  the  pupil  to  one  point,  except  in  drawing,  wherein 
two  terms’  work  is  required  for  one  point.  All  graduate- 
courses  include  32  points.  If,  after  an  effort  of  a full  term’s 
work  on  each  snbject,  the  pupil  shall  fail  on  four  points  or 
less  to  make  his  32  points,  he  will  be  allowed  to  graduate  on 
at  least  28  points.  This  school  will  not  confer  graduation 
upon  pupils  who  have  not  been  members  of  it  for  at  least  one 
year.  Pupils  entering  this  school  from  other  institutions  of 
secondary  education  of  good  standing,  will  be  allowed  credit 
for  work  done  at  such  institutions;  provided  their  standing  at 
this  school  will  justify  such  course;  and  provided  further,  that 
they  may  be  required  to  pass  an  examination  in  any  study  for 
which  they  claim  credit.  60%  is  the  passing  average  in  each 
study. 

Honorable  mention  will  be  made  of  those  entitled  to 
diplomas  A.  B.  C.

before  close  of  session  must  leave  the  building  and  its  vicinity 
immediately.  Violation  of  any  part  of  this  rule  will  forfeit 
the  special  privilege  granted.  This  rule  is  especially  to  be 
observed  by  post-graduates  and  special  students  coming  for  a 
part  of  the  day  only. 

6.  Pupils  tardy  or  absent,  whether  from  roll  call  or  reci- 
tation, will  report  to  the  Principal  for  admission  before  going 
to  class  or  roll. 

7.  Pupils  will  not  be  allowed  to  go  home  or  leave  the 
building  to  be  absent  for  any  part  of  the  day  unless  they  have 
permission  of  the  Principal  or  someone  designated  by  him. 

8.  Boisterous  or  noisy  conduct  on  the  school  premises 
is  forbidden.  Pupils  must  conduct  themselves  in  a quiet, 
orderly  manner  at  all  times  in  the  building,  and  they  must 
not  loiter  in  the  halls  or  stairways  between  the  hours  of  8:55 
and  12:00  in  the  forenoon,  and  12:45  and  2:15  in  the  afternoon. 

9.  No  pupil  will  be  allowed  to  remain  in  the  buildings 
longer  than  fifteen  minutes  after  school  is  dismissed  for  the 
day,  unless  he  have  permission  of  the  Principal  and  of  the 
teacher  in  whose  room  he  is  to  stay,  or  unless  he  be  in  attend- 
ance on  a regular  meeting  of  one  of  the  High  School  Literary, 
Scientific  or  Musical  Societies. 

10.  Pupils  may  be  suspended  for  the  following  causes: 

(a)  For  frequent  tardiness  or  for  truancy. 

(b)  For  being  absent  six  half  days  in  any  four  consecu- 
tive weeks  without  good  and  sufficient  excuse  from  parent  or 
guardian,  given  either  in  person  or  by  note. 


21 


(c)  For  defacing  or  injuring  any  school  property  malic- 
iously or  carelessly,  provided  the  pupil  refuses  to  pay  all 
damages  assessed  for  such  injury. 

(d)  For  habitual  neglect  or  disregard  of  duty;  for  using 
tobacco  during  school  hours,  or  on  or  about  the  school  prem- 
ises; for  open  disobedience  or  insubordination;  for  using 
profane  or  obscene  language;  for  playing  pool  or  frequenting 
pool-rooms  during  school  hours;  for  such  misbehavior  on  the 
street  in  going  to  or  coming  from  school  as  reflects  discredit 
upon  the  school  and  puts  at  naught  its  discipline,  or  for  avoid- 
able absence  from  examination. 

(e)  For  forging  the  name  of  parent  or  guardian  to  ex- 
cuses. This  will  include  all  such  subterfuges  as  excuses 
written  and  signed  by  unauthorized  persons. 

11.  Pupils  who  do  not  maintain  a grade  of  at  least  6o 
per  cent,  in  any  study  may  be  required  to  drop  one  or  more 
studies  until  they  have  sufficiently  improved  their  standing  in 
those  studies  in  which  they  are  deficient. 

12.  No  pupil  will  be  permitted  at  any  one  time  to  take 
more  than  four  studies  without  the  written  request  of  his 
parent  or  guardian.  No  such  request  will  then  be  granted 
unless  the  pupil  is  thought  to  be  physically  and  mentally 
strong  enough  to  do  extra  work,  nor  unless  the  record  of  the 
pupil  is  such  as  to  justify  his  attempting  it. 

13.  No  pupil  will  be  permitted  to  drop  a study  without 
a written  request  from  parent  or  guardian  and  permission 
from  the  Principal  and  the  teacher  of  the  subject  in  question, 
nor  will  he  be  allowed  to  change  from  one  teacher  to  another, 
or  from  one  class  to  another,  without  permission  from  the 
Principal  and  of  the  teacher  of  the  subject  in  question. 

14.  Any  pupil  may  be  compelled  to  drop  one  or  more 
studies  if  it  is  known  that  he  is  trying  to  carry  more  than  his 
health  or  ability  will  permit. 

15.  No  work  done  out  of  regular  classes  shall  be  accept- 
ed as  the  equivalent  of  school  work,  except  by  special  permis- 
sion of  the  Principal.  Permission  to  make  up  by  outside 
work  studies  in  which  a student  has  failed  to  pass  in  school 
will  not  ordinarily  be  granted,  and  never  except  on  the  per- 
sonal application  to  the  Principal  of  the  parent  or  guardian 
of  the  student  wishing  to  do  the  work.  No  such  work  will  be 
accepted  as  school  work,  unless  arrangements  for  it  have 
been  approved  in  advance  by  the  Principal.  No  student  shall 
receive  credit  for  such  outside  work  until  he  has  passed  satis 
factory  examinations  under  the  supervision  of  the  Principal. 


22 


HIGH  SCHOOL.  SOCIETIES. 

1.  No  society  shall  be  formed  in  the  High  School  with- 
out the  consent  of  the  Principal. 

2.  All  High  School  Societies  must  recognize  the  teach- 
ers of  the  High  School  as  ex-officio  members,  and  the  latter 
shall  have  seat  and  voice  at  all  meetings  which  they  may 
attend. 

3.  All  Societies  must  report  to  the  Principal  the  names 
of  their  officers  immediately  after  their  election. 

4.  The  High  School  Societies,  through  their  chairman, 
must  get  permission  of  the  Principal  and  of  the  teacher  of  the 
room  to  be  used  by  them  for  the  use  of  rooms  in  the  High 
School  buildings  for  the  meetings  of  their  respective  Societies. 
Permission  will  be  granted  so  long  as  the  respective  Societies 
take  proper  care  of  the  rooms  used  by  them,  and  so  long  as 
they  conduct  themselves  in  a way  that  will  not  reflect  dis- 
credit upon  the  School. 

EXAMINATIONS. 

A final  examination  will  be  held  at  the  end  of  each  term. 
Pupils  whose  standing  is  doubtful  are  obliged  to  take  this 
examination.  Those  whose  standing  is  satisfactory  may  be 
excused  from  this  examination  at  the  discretion  of  the  teacher. 

Any  pupil  who  has  a single  unexcused  absence  must  take 
the  final  examination.  Six  days  absence  during  the  term  for 
illness  will  not  prevent  excuse  from  final  examination.  All 
pupils  absent  more  than  six  days  for  any  cause  must  take  the 
final  examination.  Absence  for  parts  of  days  affects  only 
classes  missed.  Absence  at  the  beginning  of  the  term  will 
make  the  final  examination  necessary,  except  for  those  who 
have  not  before  been  members  of  the  school.  Such  absence, 
however,  may  be  excused  by  the  Principal  if  there  is  perfect 
regularity  of  attendance  thereafter,  and  high  rank  in  class  is 
maintained.  Any  pupil  not  regularly  required  to  take  the 
final  examination  may  be  permitted  to  do  so  if  he  wishes. 
The  results  of  a term’s  work  depend  upon  class  work,  exam- 
ination and  the  teacher’s  estimate. 

Regular  written  examinations  will  be  held  at  least  twice 
each  term  and  these  will  be  given  at  regular  class  time.  No 
one  will  be  excused  from  these  examinations. 

At  the  end  of  the  term  the  pupils  are  ''passed,”  ^‘not 
passed”  or  ''conditioned.”  A pupil  "not  passed”  must  take 
the  work  over  in  class.  A pupil  "conditioned”  must  remove 
the  condition  as  directed  by  the  teacher.  He  may  be  permit- 


23 


ted  to  take  a special  examination,  or  he  may  be  obliged  to 
take  part  of  the  work  again  in  class. 

Teacher’s  records  will  always  state  definitely  the  nature 
of  conditions.  A condition  must  be  removed  within  one  term 
of  its  imposition,  except  in  studies  that  are  given  but  once  a 
year,  in  which  case  conditions  must  be  removed  within  one 
year.  A condition  not  removed  within  prescribed  time  will  be 
changed  to  ‘^not  passed”  and  work  must  be  taken  again  in 
class.  Pupils  will  be  held  responsible  for  their  own  condi- 
tions. They  cannot  claim  failure  of  notification  of  expiration 
of  time  as  an  excuse  for  not  removing  conditions.  On  remov- 
ing a condition  a pupil  will  receive  a certificate  from  his 
teacher.  He  should  immediately  take  this  to  the  Principal 
and  have  his  record  made  good. 

Absence  from  any  regular  examination  shall  count  as 
zero  in  the  term’s  work.  No  such  examination  may  be  made 
up  before  the  next  regular  examination  of  the  term,  except 
with  the  written  permission  of  the  Principal.  Work  will  be 
reported  incomplete  when  such  absence  has  occurred.
